GoldfishMemory Posted July 23, 2006 Report Share Posted July 23, 2006 I have it on reminder The fights had me on the edge of my seat shadow boxing along with them, because of the knock out situation no one holds back and you see some real fighters shine through. Heart and harrd work is all it takes to succeed at boxing thats why i love it so much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoldfishMemory Posted July 24, 2006 Report Share Posted July 24, 2006 Heart breaking when someone feels they have to end their own life, i'm sure he had a young daughter too only a toddler. One of my mates a good boxer funilly enough hung himself when we were about 19 and it destroyed me for monthd. Left his mum and 2 brothers behind and she went trough the mill for a couple of years after even trying to burn down the family home while her & the 2 kids were upstairs in one of the bedrooms.

MikeO Posted July 25, 2006 Report Share Posted July 25, 2006 Shit, shouldn't have read that...can't get ITV 3,4,5,6,7,8 or Channel 5 or BBC 3,4,5,6,7 (we actually mostly communicate by semaphore down here) so I've downloaded it off the net but not yet watched. Never mind...I've got episode two as well so I'll return the compliment and let you know who wins next week (won't really)! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoldfishMemory Posted July 25, 2006 Report Share Posted July 25, 2006 I watched it and laughed my head off at the big mouth fool, he picked a fighter out of his league and paid the price.

MikeO Posted July 25, 2006 Report Share Posted July 25, 2006 (edited) The big mouth getting knocked out by the underdog god botherer 41096[/snapback] Is there anything worse than American sportsmen thanking God for giving them the strength to beat shit out of/run faster than or jump higher than another born again American whose God had the day off?!?!

That K9 is a fookin animal when he takes his shirt off too, house, built, brick & shit come to mind!! 41098[/snapback] The funny thing was that the big mouth one thought he was shit hot and thought that K9 (WOOF) would be to slow and too shit for him (he did look shit when he was sparring) and he would kick his ass. I thought he was going to come back though and I thought "OH NO" after the 3rd & 4th at BIG MOUTH was coming back into it PRAISE THE LORD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mac Posted July 25, 2006 Report Share Posted July 25, 2006 Didn't watch the first one and have no intention of watching this one. Mainly because I love amateur stuff, much more of a purists game and a lot less blood, injuries and hype, just pure boxing. ATB Mac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeO Posted July 29, 2006 Report Share Posted July 29, 2006 Ya think Zed? Think there've been better fights, though going down to the last round was good (how was it only a majority decision though?). I've prefered it in the last series when you get to know more about the people involved....strange that Stallone is still credited as exec producer but isn't in it.

CraccerC Posted July 31, 2006 Report Share Posted July 31, 2006 i rem readin botu tht guy killing himself, was sad, because i remember a scene on the show were it had him backstage with his kid and he was cryign i think, it was really heart warming, he really seemed to love his kid, and i liked the guy , was very sad, i can't judge though, i don't understand, but i'm not a fan of suicide Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romey 1878 Posted July 31, 2006 Report Share Posted July 31, 2006 Sometimes suicide looks like the only option to people, for all different reasons ofcourse. But I know what it feels like when you think everything you do is wrong and everyone would be alot happier without you. Its never the right option though.

Why? 47767[/snapback] I missed it mate was gripped my Murphys Law this week but i caught the very end where that Ebo bloke the one with the Buddist earings was being put in an ambulance after the fight was stopped by the ref. Gona watch the repeat at the weekend but i thought he had a chance of winning, his reccord was something like 30 fights 28 wins by KO!!!!

fitzyseverton Posted August 31, 2006 Report Share Posted August 31, 2006 Ebo Won the 1st 3 rounds and then was knocked out by a killer punch by michael stewart. he was then taken in an ambulance for precautionary scans. The guide told you it would be memorable but the only reason i could see was that the wives and kids had gotten close during training so it was a difficult fight for the families Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
